Quantum computing is the future of technology and economics. The country that takes the lead in quantum information systems will have a technological and economic advantage over the rest of the world. The United States is currently falling behind in this race.

The future of technology and economics lies in quantum computing. It is not just a looming threat to national security, but a technological advancement that will shape the way we live for the next half century. The race to develop quantum information systems has become increasingly fierce, and the country that takes the lead will have a significant advantage over the rest of the world. Sadly, the United States is currently falling behind in this race. While other countries like China, Canada, and Australia are making significant investments in quantum computing research, the U.S. government has yet to allocate the necessary funding to keep up. This lack of investment could have serious consequences for the United States' future economic and technological dominance. Quantum computing has the potential to revolutionize entire industries, from finance and healthcare to transportation and logistics. With the ability to process vast amounts of data at speeds impossible for classical computers, quantum computing will unlock new possibilities for innovation and discovery. The country that leads in this field will have the power to shape the future of technology and economics. As a quantum computing evangelist, I urge the U.S. government to take action now and invest in quantum computing research. The future of our country's economic and technological dominance depends on it. Let's not fall behind in this race. Let's take the lead and shape the future of technology and economics for the next half century.
